I remember watching these funny movies in the early 60s. Great memories. So entertaining. In this movie I never thought about how cool her kitchen was with a huge cooking griddle and washing machine.
Me to and now my mom has been dead for 12 years. I don't know how kids are now but I would like to think some will grow up with the same found memories of watching these movies.
Loved this when these old movies would be shown on tv, this was an unusual family and it was pure fun, both ma and pa were perfect actors for the parts they played.
Couldn't picture anyone else as ma or pa even though they did try in one or two of them for me Percy Kilbride and Marjorie Maine will be the only ma and pa
It feels like Hollywood started hitting rock bottom after 2017. They care more about diversity and wokeness more than entertaining people and quality acting.
@@lucindamobley5492 I Graduated in 1971 from high school and one of the guys I went to school is a actor in TV and movies and on our fifth year reunion he flew back from Hollywood to Philadelphia and believe me he was a left wing liberal back then and from talking to him most of Hollywood were the same way
@@richardschaffling9882 I would agree with you there. But somehow they still knew how to entertain people for a long time. But now they have dropped their masks and don't care anymore.
Remember watching "Ma & Pa Kettle" movies with my father... we'd laugh non-stop. 🤣 Wish I could turn back the clock and relive those Saturday afternoons! 🤗
I've watched these for almost 60 years and they never get old. The thing is the Kettles were real and even funnier than the shows. Read the Egg and I by Betty MacDonald.
I saw the whole movie and when it came to this part I couldn’t stop laughing. How I enjoyed watching funny scenes back then when the actors try to act serious. Not like today.
I have fond memories of the old Maytag washing machine. I loved to feed the clean clothes through the roller which squeezed out all the water and fed the flattened clothes into a tub on the other side.
They would show these when I was a kid on Saturday morning/ afternoon. Tarzan, Blondie & Dagwood, Flash Gordon. When they put 'em on VHS then DVD I "snapped them UP" Good "clean humor" This scene had me cracking UP!
My Grandma bought my mom a set of these movies on VHS and sent them to us and my mom and I binged watched them all, been hooked on them ever since and I was 16
She has a better washing machine than what my grandma had in the 80’s, I remember her using a wringer washer. We weren’t on a farm but in the Appalachian mountains.
Okay so for everyone who has seen these movies name a scene that you would like me to upload other than the math scene since it's been uploaded a few different times already
I remember on the 11 o'clock News in 1975 when it was announced that she had died, they don't do that anymore for celebrities. and the announcer even softly said: goodbye Marjorie.
The "Ma and Pa Kettle" characters first appeared in movies as secondary roles in the Fred MacMurray / Claudette Colbert movie "The Egg and I" in 1947. When the studio saw how the audience reacted to them (their stole every scene they were in,) they started the "Ma & Pa Kettle" series of seven movies over the next seven years.
There's 9 exclusively for Ma and Pa Kettle 10 if you count The Egg and I it's just 7 with Marjorie Maine and Percy Kilbride but Marjorie Maine is in all of them and it took two years after The Egg and I for universal to make Ma and Pa Kettle so they ran from 1949-1957
My one of good friends Karen would talk just like 👍🏼 ma kettle. Karen was so cool that I truly loved her. She was the most amazing person in the 🌎 love you girl you are gods best 🤗
I wish they made good wholesome stuff like this still. I am 39 years old and watch the old stuff the majority of the time. Not a fan of today’s so called television.
